Ginseng - Panax - 3 Box - 300 Cap - Herbal One

Ginseng has been used for thousands of years﻿ to improve the health of people recovering from illness. It increases a sense of wellbeing and stamina, and improves both mental and physical performance.﻿

Ginseng is any one of eleven species of slow-growing perennial plants with fleshy roots, belonging to the genus Panax of the family Araliaceae. The Panax Ginseng plant grows best in the cooler regions of the Northern Hemisphere and reaches a height of about one foot. The ginseng plant has yellowish-green umbrella-shaped flowers that grow in a circle around a straight stem, with its five leaflets joined together at one point, it blooms in midsummer. The fruit is a bright crimson berry containing one to three wrinkled seeds the size of small peas.

The medicinal properties of panax ginseng are found in both the leaf and its light tan, gnarled root; sometimes resembling a human body, with stringy shoots that look like arms and legs, hence the whole herb is referred to as a "hand". Wrinkles around the neck of the root tell how old the plant is; when the root is mature it is 2-4 inches long, 1 inch thick resembling a spindle. The roots of the plants become forked when they mature after 5-7 years.

Please note:

There is a distinct difference in the chemical composition of Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng: warming) and American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius: cooling). In addition Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus), formerly called Siberian ginseng, is a completely different species; these three herbs are not interchangeable.

Research has shown that panax ginseng is effective in maintaining and restoring the cell's capacity to function - and therefore may be considered useful as an anti-aging treatment. It is an "adaptogen" supporting the body’s functions and increasing its resistance to physical, chemical and biological stress.

Some of the other uses of Panax Ginseng are:

Alcohol intoxication: Lowers the blood alcohol content by reducing absorption from the stomach.

Cancer: As a therapy supplement panax ginseng is effective with morphine analgesia and the naturally occurring opium-containing substances that are produced by the brain (opioids). Regular intake reduces vulnerability to lung, liver, stomach, pancreatic and ovarian cancer.

In general panax ginseng is safe to use for individuals in good health. This herb can cause elevation in blood pressure, tremors, nervousness, headache, vomiting, insomnia, and nose bleeding. For individuals with heart disease who are taking Digoxin, the use of panax ginseng may cause falsely abnormal blood tests. Panax ginseng should be avoided when taking aspirin, Warfarin/Coumadin, oral hypoglycemic agents, insulin, Phenelzine, ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve). It is not recommended for use in pregnancy or for people suffering from manic disorder and psychosis.
